The three volumes of the Folk of the Air series and its spin-off are gathered for the first time in a box set with special contents. The previously unpublished short story " The Lost Sisters," an updated map of Elfhame on the back covers, a new cover for "The Darkest Corner of the Forest ," and gifts such as a paper crown-shaped headband, bookmarks, an exclusive poster with fan art by Arda Arts, and a pennant.
In the Folk of the Air series, bestselling author Holly Black transports readers to the Faerie Kingdom. Not the kind of fairy tales you see in classic fairy tales, where fairies can be cruel and deadly, especially if motivated by power. This adventure blends magic, palace intrigue, and romance.
The Darkest Corner of the Forest (294 pages)
Hazel and her brother, Ben, live in a town where humans and fairies coexist. The seemingly harmless magic of these beings attracts tourists from all over, eager to see the wonders of the place up close, and especially the boy with horns and pointy ears who rests in a glass coffin. Hazel and Ben were fascinated by the boy as children. But they know the horned boy will never wake up… Until one day he does. Now, the brothers must become the heroes they pretended to be and unravel the mysteries surrounding the horned prince.
The Cruel Prince (360 pp.)
Jude was seven years old when her parents were murdered and forced to live in Faerie. Ten years later, all she wants is to be like them—beautiful and immortal—and truly belong in Faerie, despite her mortality. To earn a place in the High Court, she must defy Prince Cardan, the High King's most handsome and cruelest son… and face the consequences.
The Wicked King (320 pp.)
Jude thought that after tricking Cardan into swearing obedience to her for a year and a day, her life would become easier. But having any influence over the High King of Elfhame seems an impossible task, especially when he does everything in his power to humiliate and harm her, even as his fascination with the human girl remains intact.
The Queen of Nothing (294 pages)
Jude holds the once-unthinkable title of High Queen of Elfhame, but conditions are far from ideal. Exiled by Cardan to the mortal world, Jude finds herself powerless and frustrated as she plots to reclaim everything Cardan took from her.
